President Trump announces a new push to outlaw – nationwide – cashless bail, a practice in blue cities that lets violent criminals quickly get back into communities.

Trump stood at the podium and said it flat: “Every place in the country where you have no cash bail is a disaster.” https://www.usnews.com/news/world/articles/2025-08-11/trump-calls-for-legislation-to-end-no-cash-bail-in-us-cities-as-part-of-crime-crackdown

He wants it gone. Nationwide. Chicago, New York, DC, Oakland named and shamed. “Somebody murders somebody and they’re out on no cash bail before the day is out.” https://www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news/trump-no-cash-bail-chicago-national-guard-dc/

He’s pushing federal legislation. DOJ will draft it. Stefanik says she’ll write the bill. https://www.aol.com/news/trump-vows-federal-bill-outlaw-185904438.html
